Strictly Pancakes

Strictly pancakes serves decent pancakes (soft and fluffy), and is a great place to chill with friends. Don’t harbour unrealistic high expectations when you go there, it’s just pancakes afterall ;)

Lemon Curd for the Nerds

Medium stack chocolate pancakes, doused in lemon custard, and accompanied with a small scoop of vanilla ice-cream. The chocolate pancakes really hit the spot. Loved how rich and chocolatey it was. The lemon curd was too runny, I think they should call it a sauce. It wasn’t tangy enough but that’s a personal preference, I have quite a high threshold for sour stuff.

Bananas- scotched

The banana slices caramelised in rum were very delicious. But I’m still loving the chocolate pancakes (and the chocolate coma that came thereafter) more!

I didn’t try this at all but this is a good option it you don’t have a sweet tooth. The beef here was nicely grilled medium-well but the friend said she ended up with a fillet that was dry and badly charred on a subsequent visit.

Unless you have a super sweet tooth and appetites like ours, I don’t think it’s possible to finish the pancakes on your own. Even if you can, I suggest sharing a few different types with friends to break the monotony.

Yea, that might be a reason but I guess calling it a lemon curd kinda gave me expectations of a thick consistency instead of some liquid that seemed more like a sauce than curd. That said, I do feel a sauce is better suited for pancakes than a traditional lemon curd that has set in the fridge and thickened properly. I’m just nitpicking over semantics on my part, I liked the taste overall (:
